Rarely heard aloud except for on record, the Radiohead front man will be finding his voice as he guides listeners through his picks, telling us all about where and when he first heard them. Said picks include the likes of Zomby, Emika and James Blake and are to be played alongside a number of exclusive new tracks from himself, while Radiohead remixes that didn’t quite make TKOL RMX 134677 are likely to be heard too.
